Wouldn't Tom Riddle have been at school around the same time as the Weasley twins' grandparents?

But why would they know the names of people in the school at the same time as their grandparents?

And, even if they did, they wouldn't know that Riddle = Voldemort. At least, in canon I think Dumbledore or someone says in so many words that scarcely anyone ever connected the two.
